26 Best Wine Bars in Baltimore

“I highly recommend The Duchess. We had brunch here today and every aspect of our visit were SUPERB!
Chef Kiko’s food is so tasty and so delicious!
We ordered longganisa that taste like the Philippine Vigan longanisa. The lumpia was yummy and the sauce is the bomb. I wasn’t sure if the pancit being vegetarian will not suit me, oh I was wrong it was full of umami bomb! We requested. For the kimchi fried rice, we requested to have it with the red rice instead, it was a triple WOW! The kimchi taste so very good and the tangy spicy flavor was there! Ube mochi waffle was excellent, even without the macadamia nut. What more if it was included. For dessert we had the ube flan that melts in your mouth with its silky smooth texture, and I like that it is not too sweet. They also let us taste their mango coconut shave ice on the house, delish!
I don’t have any negative to say, everything is flawless, from its homey athmosphere, superb service and the best cookery from Chef Kiko!
We will dine again and this time it will be their dinner menu. Shoutout to Zoe and Danvic! See you again folks!“

“What a fantastic meal my husband and our son had. Son has been to many restaurants around the world and we all thoroughly enjoyed this one. We tried many different dishes and split them . These included the sour dough bread , liver pate, Sussex smokie, mackerel and of course had a delicious dessert after. The service and the food were fantastic.“

“This is one of the best places to go in South Baltimore! Charming inside and friendly, welcoming service. Delicous food, the empanadas are a must try! Great wine and coffee selection with local beers as well. They also have a small market stocked with local favorites including fresh baked bread and pastries. Make sure you try Bodega and Vino!“

“❤️

First of all, I want to thank the entire team, but I especially want to recognize our amazing server, Diane. She truly knew what she was doing and was one of the best servers I have ever encountered. She was professional, attentive, knowledgeable, and made our experience exceptional. A huge thank you to her!

As for the food, everything was outstanding and absolutely worth the money. The portions were very generous maybe even a little too big! We wished we had room to try dessert, but unfortunately we were too full.

The quality of the food was excellent, and the atmosphere was relaxing and perfect for dinner. If we’re ever back in the area, we will definitely return. Thank you again to Diane and the entire team for such a wonderful experience!“

“I Love It Here!!! I’ve Been About 4-5 Times, Each Visit Was Great Customer Service, Food, Vibe, Drinks All A+“

“Great beers and wines. Lovely beer garden rated one of Esquire’s best in the US.“

“I recommend Limoncello Baltimore for delicious food and nice atmosphere! Baltimore is known for its restaurants and Limoncello demonstrates great quality and excellent service.“

“Food was delicious! I would have taken a picture but I ate it too fast. The flavors were all so bold and fresh. Will definitely be back!“

“Food was great , service was great. No complaints.“

“I love how some things never change, like how certain restaurants are always good. Cinghiale is one of them“

“Sneaky good gastropub. My party enjoyed everything we got. Started with Crab Corn Chowder which was high-end restaurant quality; robust amount of crab too. Feedback on dinners -- Classic Cheesesteak, Chicken Wrap, and Cuban (had pulled pork and pork roll, a true NJ flair) -- exceedingly positive. Then the Duck Fat Fried Donut Holes...OMG, one of the best desserts ever. Next afternoon I went back for a quick Natty Bo and guy next to me said he goes weekly for the Pit Turkey and the chef does a great job on the smoked meats. Will definitely make a regular stop when in town again. Prices fair, a good value, and no wait. Neighborhood location, so a locals-only sort of feel. Kudos to the chef!“

“My home away from home! Hope to return soon but in the meantime, I will order.“

“premiere dining experience with delicious food, cocktails, and a very welcoming and knowledgeable staff!! Will definitely be back!“

“Outstanding and delicious!! Atmosphere is superb!! Mrs. Hope was a great customer service lady!! Highly recommend!“

“Great atmosphere and the staff in very friendly!“

“Oh boy, let me tell you about the pre-game magic we experienced at Johnny's! With a high school state championship soccer game at Loyola on our agenda, my friend, her daughter, and I were on the hunt for the perfect spot to fuel up before the excitement. And boy, did we hit the jackpot with Johnny's! Walking into Johnny's was like finding a hidden gem in a treasure map. The cozy vibes wrapped around us like a warm blanket on a chilly Sunday—it was just what we needed! We settled ourselves at the bar, eager for some drinks and snacks, and that’s where the real fun began. Our bartender was nothing short of a beverage maestro! I ordered a cortado that was so perfectly crafted I nearly swooned. Seriously, it should have been on the cover of a coffee magazine! And let me tell you about their wine list—it’s like a unique art piece. I picked a Pinot Noir to accompany my house-made Old Bay chips, and it was such a delightful pairing that I felt like a sophisticated sommelier for a moment. Now, my bourbon-loving friend was over the moon to discover that Johnny's stocked his all-time favorite brand, FEW. After indulging in wine and coffee that could make any day brighter, we just had to cap off our relaxed Sunday with a round of bourbon. Because what’s a pre-game without a little celebratory sip, right? My friend and her daughter were enjoying their vanilla latte and mocha to the fullest—let’s just say the smiles on their faces were positively radiant! And the cookies? Oh my goodness! The gingerbread and peanut butter cookies were instant crowd-pleasers. I’m pretty sure I’d fight a bear for another bite! Now, here’s the kicker: my friend might live in sunny Florida, but I’m ready to brave the Washington Beltway traffic any time just to return to Johnny's. If they nail snacks and drinks this well before a soccer game, I can't even imagine what kind of culinary genius they have up their sleeves! So, Johnny's, you’ve stolen my heart (and my taste buds)—I’m already counting down the days until my next visit!“

“Good peoples :) Great location.“

“Food was not good pasta taste like spaghetti O’s lamb chops tasted like it was boiled. I do not recommend! I selected would not recommend and Facebook made me recommend and I DON’T“

“Wonderful food and service!“

“Great little local down to earth restaurant. The food was superbly prepared with attention to detail. The ingredients were very fresh and cooked to perfection.
The welcoming atmosphere makes it feel like home. We look forward to coming back every few weeks and definitely are interested in coming your way the special dinner events.“

“Nice Vibe . The Bartender Ishu was Fantastic !!! The Best Drinks I had all summer . Highly recommend“

“The Four Seasons did an exceptional job with transforming their splash pool bar and grill. They had very well decorated sheds, including throws which made it look very cozy. In the sheds you can indulge in a prix fixe (pre-fixed) 4 course meal. Just above the pool bar and grill is a skating rink. They offer marshmallows, coco, music, fire pits and a fireplace. Not to mention, you get the best views of Baltimore's adjacent Harbor. Unfortunately, I did not make reservations via Open Table in advance so I was not able to indulge in the festivities or have the full experience with a meal. With that said, I will definitely try to visit again soon and maybe take the children. I would strongly recommend checking this seasonal offering out and book in advance because the slots fills up fast.“

“I enjoyed a solo brunch on a Sunday afternoon. I ordered the catfish and grits with a lemon drop mimosa. The drink was refreshing with the right amount of alcohol. The catfish was fried hard and very well seasoned. The star of the meal was the grits. IDK for sure what they put in them but they are delicious! Service was fast and polite. I will def be back soon to try out other items on the menu. #EatBlackOwned #HappyJuneteenthWeekend“

“Just a great old school Italian restaurant. Meal was fantastic. People very friendly. I highly recommend.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exceptional Thanksgiving Dinner To-Go!!

I ordered the Thanksgiving Dinner To-Go from the DoubleTree Inn at the Colonnade, and it was absolutely phenomenal. Every dish tasted homemade and full of flavor. The turkey was perfectly moist, the mashed potatoes were light and fluffy, the stuffing was wonderfully savory, and the green beans were cooked just right. The sweet potatoes topped with marshmallows ended up being one of my favorite sides of the entire meal.

Every bite was thoroughly enjoyed, and I’ll definitely be ordering again next year. Highly recommend!“

“I absolutely love this place. It feels like everything md! The seafood, the drinks, and amazing specials they have! I loved it so much I decided to have my wedding there. The catering staff has been amazing to work with, florist is a godsend and great price. I really can’t say enough good things.“
